Supreme Electromagnetic Tyrant-Chapter 697 - 427 Shocking Generosity

As the words of the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King fell, all eyes in the great hall immediately turned to Ji Xinghuo, including those of the True Dragons among the Dragon King Guards, whose variously colored Dragon Eyes filled with shock and curiosity. freewebnoveℓ.com

The genius legends mostly felt envy, and some even let out gasps.

Ji Xinghuo himself was also stunned!

The rewards offered by the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King far exceeded what the champion of the Dragon Festival deserved, with just the first reward, special permission to enter the "Titanium Cobalt Dragon Breeding Room" once, enough to drive countless people mad.

Every True Dragon Family has its own Dragon Breeding Room, responsible for hatching Dragon Eggs, nurturing young dragons, feeding, training, and so on. It could be said that the Dragon Breeding Room is the most core institution of a True Dragon Family, the source of power, the foundation of their rise!

Naturally, the Titanium Cobalt Family was no exception.

In the Yuan Magnetic Territory, the Cobalt-Titanium Family has established hundreds of Dragon Breeding Rooms, most of which are in the Star Realm and some are built on planets.

These Dragon Breeding Rooms are divided into multiple levels according to the type of dragon.

But only one is prefixed with "Titanium Cobalt", the highest level Dragon Breeding Room of the Titanium Cobalt Family. It is located in Upper Titanium Ring City, inside the Yuan Magnetic Palace Metal Mountains, and is the core sanctuary of the Titanium Cobalt Family.

Because the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Breeding Room is responsible for breeding Titanium Cobalt Dragons!

It is said that there are also other Divine Dragon Species in the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Breeding Room, as well as a variety of rare dragons just below the Divine Dragon Species.

Entering the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Breeding Room gives one the opportunity to obtain a Divine Dragon Species!

Even if one misses out, the other rare dragons inside are still far more powerful than common dragons, which are the opportunities countless True Dragon peoples dream of.

And the Dragon King has granted it to a Deserted Person.

As for the second reward—bestowing the Titanium Cobalt surname, becoming a direct bloodline member of the Titanium Cobalt Family—was clearly a deliberate consideration by the Dragon King.

This not only resolves the "Ash"’s race issue but also allows him to serve the family better and contribute his strength to the Titanium Cobalt Family.

The True Dragon Race is the ruling class of the Dynasty.

However, there are also great differences among True Dragons, with the vast majority being eliminated in the competition, having no chance of getting a dragon and forced to pursue other evolutionary paths.

If one cannot evolve to Fifth Rank, they are not even worthy of a bloodline surname.

Even Dragon Lords, who almost all own ordinary dragon species, are far behind the direct bloodline members of a family in terms of strength, resources, and status.

There are also hierarchies within True Dragon Families.

Naturally, small families established around Dragon Lords with only a few dragons cannot compare to territorial families who own lands and can build Dragon Breeding Rooms on a large scale;

And above these territorial families are Dragon Venerate Families, with the so-called Dragon Lords being those who possess Seventh Rank strength yet don’t own a Dragon Territory.

More noble than Dragon Venerate Families are Dragon King Families.

Even among Dragon King Families, there are differences.

Divine Dragon Bloodline is more powerful and profound than other True Dragon Bloodlines, with the Titanium Cobalt Family being one of them, standing at the pinnacle of the True Dragon Dynasty’s pyramid, ruling over all, even within the Titanium Cobalt Family, there’s a difference between direct and collateral family members, with direct members enjoying far greater rights and treatment.

In the current Titanium Cobalt Family, direct members number less than a hundred.

Almost every one of them possesses exceptional talent; half of them own Titanium Cobalt Dragons, and the other half, even without Titanium Cobalt Dragons, have extremely powerful and rare dragons, pillars of the family’s strength.

Ash is but a Deserted Person.

And now, he has been appointed as a direct family member by the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King, ascending from the lowest to the most noble status, a leap too great to be described as a meteoric rise.

Many True Dragons’ eyes turned red with envy.

Ji Xinghuo, of course, would not refuse.

But he was very clear in his mind that there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world; the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King’s generosity, bestowing such amazing rewards, was clearly due to his recognition of Ji Xinghuo’s talent and potential, a strategic reward to win his loyalty and future contributions for the Titanium Cobalt Family.

As for the Titanium Cobalt surname, Ji Xinghuo didn’t have any psychological burden, it was just a code name.

What does Ash changing his surname to Titanium Cobalt have to do with me, Ji Xinghuo?

Just as Ji Xinghuo was about to verbally accept, a voice rose from below the throne, "Your Majesty! Isn’t this a bit too much of a favor for a Deserted Person?"

Everyone turned their gaze toward the speaker.

She was a tall woman clad in Dragon Pattern Battle Armor, beautiful without being gaudy, but what was most striking was her flaming long hair that fluttered behind her like a cape, and the terrible aura she emitted which had reached the realm of the Shepherd Star Saint.

She stood below the throne, her status second only to the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King, and it was easy to guess who she was.

Titanium Cobalt Yanluo!

When Ji Xinghuo had first arrived in the Yuan Magnetic Territory, Cheng Qian had introduced him to the top combat forces of the territory, totaling nine.

The strongest, of course, was the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King.

The other eight, four came from the Titanium Cobalt Family; of the remaining four, two were Dragon Venerates from territorial families, and the other two were Shepherd Star Saints from the Alien Race.

All of them obey the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King, and Titanium Cobalt Yanluo was one of them, with a close relationship to the Dragon King. Rumors suggested she was the Dragon King’s lover, but the truth of that was unknown. Regardless, she was a major figure in the Yuan Magnetic Territory, with considerable influence.

Ji Xinghuo frowned inwardly.

He had never offended this Titanium Cobalt Yanluo, so why was she trying to prevent the Dragon King’s reward?

"Hmm?"

The Titanium Cobalt Dragon King turned his head to look at Titanium Cobalt Yanluo, his face showing displeasure, "Yanluo, are you questioning my decision?"

"I dare not!" Titanium Cobalt Yanluo immediately knelt halfway, bowing her head as a sign of respect, and explained, "I’m considering the prestige of Your Majesty. Ash is a Deserted Person, a lower-race individual but suddenly becoming a direct member of the Titanium Cobalt Family. Once this news spreads, many True Dragon subjects will inevitably not accept it, reducing the family’s reputation."

"Your Majesty, if you set this precedent today, what will happen next time?"

"If every apex talent from alien races can enter the True Dragon Family, our True Dragon people’s dignity and bloodline, as well as our cultural system, will be destroyed in an instant."

"I suggest preserving Ji Xinghuo’s opportunity to enter the Titanium Cobalt Dragon Breeding Room and, after fusing with the Ancestor Dragon Bloodline, allow him the status of a True Dragon person. However, he should not be granted the Titanium Cobalt surname and cannot join the direct lineage of the Titanium Cobalt Family but remain a follower of Titanium Cobalt Lan."

"Please reconsider, Your Majesty!"

Titanium Cobalt Yanluo spoke earnestly with a solemn expression. After he finished speaking, he knelt on the ground, motionless, yet did not immediately receive a response from the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King.

Silence filled the great hall.

Ji Xinghuo stood at the forefront. Although he couldn’t directly see the reactions of others, he could guess that Titanium Cobalt Yanluo’s words had gained the approval of many True Dragon people present, including the Dragon King Guards on both sides.

The True Dragon Dynasty is a nation built upon bloodline, with a rigid hierarchical system more entrenched than the caste system.

The higher one’s position and racial superiority, the more they endeavor to maintain this system.

And the True Dragon people are its biggest beneficiaries.

"Yanluo has good intentions."

The Titanium Cobalt Dragon King finally spoke but did not express agreement or opposition.

His gaze swept over everyone and finally settled on Ji Xinghuo, asking, "Ji Xinghuo, what are your thoughts?"

"I will abide by Your Majesty’s decision," Ji Xinghuo replied.

The Titanium Cobalt Dragon King arched his brow. In normal circumstances, now would be the time to advocate for oneself, to refute Titanium Cobalt Yanluo’s argument, or to express one’s loyalty to the Titanium Cobalt Family and secure the reward.

But Ji Xinghuo said nothing.

His silence was, in fact, a veiled statement. First, he didn’t care about so-called racial prejudices and was indifferent to becoming a member of the Titanium Cobalt Family; second, he provided the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King a way to step down and save face for himself and his family.

"Prestige, dignity, reputation..." A trace of mockery appeared on the majestic face of the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King. "Before power, these hollow honors are not worth mentioning."

Titanium Cobalt Yanluo’s expression changed.

Before she could argue further, she heard the Titanium Cobalt Dragon King say, "Since you, Ji Xinghuo, don’t strive for it, let it be as Yanluo wishes. However, even if you do not carry the Titanium Cobalt surname, you are still one of my Titanium Cobalt Family."

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Ji Xinghuo responded loudly.

For him, this was a favorable outcome.

He gained the most substantial benefit and the chance to acquire Divine Dragon species.

As for the Titanium Cobalt Family’s surname and the status of a direct family member, others might see it as a missed monumental opportunity, but for him, it actually reduced some of the burden, making his future more relaxed and free.

The Titanium Cobalt Dragon King continued to distribute rewards.

The top ten of the Destructive Dragon Festival were each granted the opportunity to select a dragon, but apart from Ji Xinghuo, the rest were only allowed into the inferior Dragon Breeding Rooms.

The same was true for Guxing Li.

Nonetheless, a hint of excitement appeared on the impassive face of Guxing Li. For a pseudo-dragon person like himself, nothing was more delightful than becoming a True Dragon person and Dragon Lord, even if his current power had already surpassed countless True Dragon people.

This desire was engraved in the genes of pseudo-dragon people and could never change.

Among the top ten, only Titanium Cobalt Zhenhe gave up his chance to choose a dragon, opting for Ether Crystals as a reward instead.

Two Dragon Lords, ranked seventh and ninth, already had dragons. The one ranked seventh even had two, making him a "Lord of Two Dragons," but he still wanted to enter the Dragon Breeding Room to select more dragons.

The eleventh-ranked Legendary Mutant also received the chance to become a Dragon Lord and was ecstatic.

The Mutants ranked after him, based on their positions, received substantial amounts of Ether Crystals.

Then came the rewards for the kill-ranking.

Ji Xinghuo was still in the lead, far ahead of the others.

The Titanium Cobalt Dragon King set generous rewards for the kill-ranking, including Alien Species, Ether Crystals, Weapon Equipment, Treasures, War Pets, storage-expanding items, all sorts of rare potions, cultivation resources, and even a fiefdom of a hundred thousand square kilometers.

Ji Xinghuo had the priority of choice.

He was interested in two treasures. The first was an Apocalypse One Star weapon named "Thunderstorm."

A Spiritual Sword, which through manipulating metal, could disassemble into countless superconducting needles, forming an attack like a thunderstorm, with both electric and physical damage, its power immense. It was a specially crafted weapon of the Titanium Cobalt Family.

The second was a storage-expanding item called "End Dragon Eye."

Created from the eyes of deceased True Dragons, it provided Sixth Rank and Fifth Rank Mutants with an additional opportunity for fusion, and could be used only once.

End Dragon Eye was precious, typically allotted only to direct members of the Titanium Cobalt Family, but this time one was offered as a reward for the Destructive Dragon Festival.

However, Ji Xinghuo could only choose one.

In terms of value, the Apocalypse One Star "Thunderstorm" was certainly higher; it could easily sell for tens of thousands of Ether Crystals and perhaps even more. Most people would choose it.

The End Dragon Eye was rare, but other items could replace storage-expanding items.

Ji Xinghuo had a greater need for a storage-expanding item.

He glanced at Guxing Li and Titanium Cobalt Zhenhe beside him and immediately thought of a plan. So he said on the spot, "Your Majesty, I choose Thunderstorm."
